Fruitful Women of the Bible: Featuring Biographies of Christian Women Who Embody the Fruit of the Spirit

I wanted to start learning more about the Bible and this title caught my eye. It looked like a very interesting place to start. I loved it! Thank you for getting me started.

I'm79 years young. I've heard many comments on how women are not equipped for certain positions or inability to conquer main stream lifestyles.This short book has amazing true Biblical stories of women's lives and ladies of the Path centuryLives.

.

From the book: "For so long, our roles as women seemed to be tied to the husbands we would find and the kids we would raise."Reading this line resonated so deeply. As a full time mother and wife dedicating my life to nourishing my family and community it can be difficult to remember myself as an individual, even though I consider myself a "self -aware" person.I found this book to be so on point with how it highlights various needs we have as women in ways that are more elevated and Godly, to remind us of why we are really here, and what God knows is possible for us when we live a truly Godly life in female form.I also love the sweet picture illustration in each story. It as a nice touch and was totally unexpected.Looking forward to more from this author.Posting from my husband's account but I am a woman reading.

Fruitful Women of the Bible takes you on an insightful journey into the world of femininity and strength, blending timeless biblical wisdom with modern challenges. The author skillfully combines engaging storytelling with thought-provoking insights, making it a captivating read. However, I couldn't help but notice a resemblance to Shannon Bream's style, which, although commendable, at times made it a bit challenging for me to fully connect with the author's unique voice. Despite this, the book remains a good read, offering valuable insights.

This book cleverly uses the 9 Fruits of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22-23 to highlight various women from the Bible. For each Fruit, the author tells the stories of two different biblical women who embodied that particular Fruit. She also includes the story of an historical woman for each Fruit as well. Some of the women she profiled were unexpected which I really enjoyed and appreciated. I learned quite a bit and was very inspired by the stories of these women. After reading this, I am motivated to live a more fruitful life myself.

This book is well written and you can tell the time, energy, prayer, and research that was used by all of the informative information. The author also adds a personal touch by giving real world examples of how woman should live there life according to God's will. Whether man or woman we all go through similar situations and having God with us we can overcome any situation.

I loved the tone and simplicity of this book. It helped me understand the character and nature of woman from the bible. You can either read through from start to finish, or select from the various chapters of woman who displayed kindness, faithfulness, peace etc. I would recommend.

So many amazing inspiring women in this book. The author has done a great job expanding my idea of each of these virtues. I think this book would work really well as a book study for a group.

Beautifully written selection of stories about women of God, both from history and from the bible. A most enjoyable and inspiring read.

The book is beautiful and inspirational! You will find stories about women that will help you understand yourself and how to become better and stronger! I would recommend this book to all women!

Fruitful Women of the Bible is filled with delightful and insightful stories about 27 women who either feature in the bible, or throughout history, who embody feminine strength. The stories are delightful to read and include touches of humour. The book is cleverly divided into what the author calls 'fruits of the spirit' ie joy, peace, self-control, etc. with each chapter focusing on one of them. Some of the stories were old favourites of mine, and some were completely new to me and I loved them all. At the end of each section are lessons to be learnt from the stories, and questions for self-reflection.

Really interesting content and inspirational for any woman wanting to realise her potential. The book talks about women in history as well as women from the bible.
